This one shows the fate of the board and where. Surfing any board at Steamer’s Lane without a leash took it’s toll. I made that longer section into one of Santa Cruz’s first two short boards. It was an 8’1”. The original “Cede Custom”. The only other shortboard was an 8’1” shaped by ONeill shop for Rick Kalinowski and produced the same week. (Almost) no-one surfed Stockton at that time.

da cat surfboard fins. these fins were also used on the stemwinders and the noll riders in the years of 66 and 67

1967 9'8 Greg Noll dacat slot bottom

great original nose print on this one

the Greg Noll and Dacat logo are in great condition

taking a peak down the concave nose

check out the printed inlayed slots on the bottom that match the nose print

the original dacat fin fits in the box great still

the fin is in and shes ready to go out for a spin.

check out the print on this one and look at the print in the picture to the right on my other board. they are the same print so these are sister boards even though this one is number 837 and the other one is number 1313

this board can been seen in the pictures below and yu can see it has the same print as the board to the left.
